I just tried it and when you try and go to the "store" it says it is down..

Says "Hang on update in progress.."



On the EVE account management there is no mention of the "Ultimate Game Card." as an option to pay.


Try a petition I guess unless the card is a scam..

Card might not be scam, but their terms & conditions aren't too convincing ...

From http://www.ultimategamecard.com/content/terms-and-conditions
Quote:
THE LIST OF PARTICIPATING ONLINE GAMES IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE AT ANY TIME AND THE PRESENCE OF A GAME IN THE GAME LISTING ON ULTIMATEGAMECARD.COM OR PAYBYCASH.COM WEB SITE DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT THE ULTIMATE GAME CARD CAN BE USED FOR THAT GAME.
...
THE PRICE THAT MAY BE PAID FOR ONLINE GAMES LISTED ON THE PAYBYCASH.COM SITE IS OFTEN GREATER THAN THE CREDIT CARD PRICE CHARGED BY THE ONLINE GAME PROVIDER ON THEIR OWN SITE. THE PAYBYCASH PRICE MAY CHANGE AT ANY TIME.
...
The UGC has no actual cash value and is not refundable or convertible back to cash


I would not buy those since there is no mention of ultimate card / ultimatepay / paybycash in EVE Account Management, so I doubt they work with EVE.

Purchasing ingame goods for real money from 3rd party sites is not allowed, no matter if it's PLEX or any other ingame item or asset

If you are looking to purchase a gametime code legally (which can be redeemed for PLEX later), you should use one of the official retailers listed at account management page

OP didn't ask about that graphic card deal. See http://www.ultimategamecard.com/

I think you still misunderstood it.

Ultimate Game Card seems to be just prepaid card which can then be used as payment method in supported games, so PLEX (or whatever) would be bought at EVE Account Management using Ultimate Game Card as payment method.

But as I said earlier, EVE Account Management doesn't seem to support this payment method.
